Jason David Frank Dodges Bullets In The New Series Trailer For TAZ KAYDEN: OPERATION BLACK UNICORN

Sure, not a day goes by that actor, martial artist and social media superstar Jason David Frank doesn't acknowledge the fan outpouring he still receives from his Power Ranger fame of yesteryear. To date, it's a role he still celebrates in some capacity with recurring performances on televison, as well as online through Machinima's reality webseries, My Morphin Life, and with any luck, the big screen by 2016.

This time though, he's going from green to civilian/tactical threads with guns blazing from all corners and bullets raining from up above in next year's explosive action series pilot, Taz Kayden: Operation Black Unicorn. He'll be joined by fellow former Power Ranger cast member, actor Jason Faunt, actor and underground Batman Kevin Porter and wrestling star-turned-actor John Morrison in a series that mingles a bit between The Expendables and FX series, Archer with a heavy comic book influence, which could serve as something fresh and new to fans. This, of course, with a few nods here and there? ...Something about a flute? Hm.

SYNOPSIS:

Taz Kayden (Jason David Frank) a mercenary for hire, is tasked with the job of retrieving the "Black Unicorn" weapon from his revenge fueled ex-partner Russell Wallace (John Morrison) before it's sold to an underground terrorist group.

The project is expected to kick off with a crowdfunding campaign by January 2015. Superhero fan platform and entertainment channel Bat In The Sun are behind the new project, and links to their Facebook page can be found upon opening the description of the video below in a new tab. Take a look!

The past few years have been a vigorous tug-and-pull over just how long it would be before actor and martial artist Iko Uwais would see a more principal role than in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Landing a more definitive English speaking line in this year's thriller, Headshot, was just another layer on the waiting cake added until more time passed until now, with actor Frank Grillo front and center with the cast that outlines the first of possible prospects to come between two actors who've gotten their start in different markets.
I speak of prospects with a certain action crime saga remake in mind, but in the good name of staying on topic, let's bring things back into focus. For this, we now turn to the long-awaited first official teaser trailer for the new sci-fi thriller, Beyond Skyline from writer/producer/director Liam O'Donnell who served on the first film from directing duo Colin and Greg Strause back in 2010.
Those who haven't seen the first film yet have…

I think it's safe to say you know your movie sucks when you not only screw the rights holders whose name and content you base your unsanctioned film on, but when said rights holders join the chorus of critics panning your movie from literally every angle of the internet. That is the level of achievement you have reached if your name is George Nolfi and you've directed a film called Birth Of The Dragon, long hyped to be a hopefully legendary homage to Bruce Lee, the late founder of Jeet Kune Do and patriarch of American martial arts movie fandom.

My weekend was pretty huge for movies. My thoughts on Wolf Warrior 2 are up on my Instagram as well as posts about S.S. Rajamouli's Bahubali saga so feel free to skim those through and follow me as well as I also cross post news there. The news also includes the latest on what's what in the weekly Hit List and we begin with a new round of stunt and training reels from around the web. Anna Akimova gets things going this week with her latest reel followed by Jake Teel, D.L. MacDonald, Tyler Street, Jessica Stafford, Graham Hooper, Andy Whitmarsh, Samuel Horowitz, Monica Lopez, Noel Martinez, Casey Michaels, Bronson Cameron, Yessenia Cossio, Aaron D.
